Wonder if anyone is experiencing problems using the Sony FX-1 Camera in combination with Premiere Pro 1.5.1 in HDV mode. I am using Matrox 100 extreme capture card and Pentium 4 PC 3.0Ghz with 1G ram.

Matrox extreme will NOT recognize the camera with device control in HDV mode. I also cannot operate (i.e, capture within Adobe premiere) even when selecting "No Device Control" as an option and manually trying to capture. I can capture and Matrox does recognize everything that is in DV mode. Any suggestions from anyone...other than switching editing programs?

Thanks
HH
 
Horse - I wouldn't be so quick to jump ship just yet. I wish I had access to a FX-1 to experiment on my system for you. I too use PPro 1.5.1 and the Matrox 100 capture card. Have you tried posting this issue on the Premiere forum and the Matrox forum?
 
I work for a company that sells the FX-1 and Z1-U, and I should have one of those to play with very shortly. I am using Premiere 1.51 as well, but with Canopus DVstorm2 Pro. I'll update when I receive the camera.

Good luck.

Well.......considering I'm not doing anything with HDV (and probably never will) and I doubt this is a PremierePro problem, I'm not switching anytime soon considering I've been using Premiere since v.5.5
 
Make sure on the FX-1 menu that HDV mode is selected and the Conversion setting "HDV to DV" is turned off.
